Novel Baby Holder

ABSTRACT

The present invention is a novel baby holder with a main body configured having a central cavity constructed and arrange to hold a baby with the main cavity having a front pair of retractable legs and a rear pair of retractable legs.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

As consumer goods continue to evolve, there is a significant increase in security and safety items for infants. As many parents will attest, the large selection has created many conveniences. However, there is one area needing attention. Baby carriers are typically single chair units that occasionally come with holders or supports. There is no baby carrier configured for varying degrees of standing.

The present invention addresses this need.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The present invention is a baby carrier configured for varying degrees of standing. As generally understood, the varying degrees are configured for a burp position, a face down position, and other configurations as desired.

In one embodiment, the present invention is a baby holding system comprising:

-   -   a main body configured with an interior cavity constructed and         arranged to hold a baby therein;     -   safety connector configured to extend horizontally across said         main body;     -   a front pair of retractable support legs;     -   a rear pair of retractable support legs;     -   wherein each of said front pair of retractable support legs and         rear pair of retractable support legs are operatively associated         with a safety locking mechanism to secure into a selected         extended or retracted configuration.

In one embodiment, the present invention is further comprising a safety bumper about an upper outer perimeter of said interior cavity.

In one embodiment, the present invention is further comprising a mesh head support positioned in said interior cavity.

In one embodiment, the present invention each of said front pair of retractable support legs and rear pair of retractable support legs further include telescoping legs.

In one embodiment, the present invention each of said front pair of retractable support legs and rear pair of retractable support legs are pivotably and rotatably attached to said main body.

In one embodiment, the present invention each of said front pair of retractable support legs and rear pair of retractable support legs are pivotably and rotatably attached to said main body having a first rotatable configuration extending beyond a main body profile and a second rotatable configuration within a profile of said main body.

In one embodiment, the present invention is a baby holding system consisting of:

-   -   a main body configured with an interior cavity constructed and         arranged to hold a baby therein;     -   safety connector configured to extend horizontally across said         main body;     -   a front pair of retractable support legs;     -   a rear pair of retractable support legs;     -   wherein each of said front pair of retractable support legs and         rear pair of retractable support legs are operatively associated         with a safety locking mechanism to secure into a selected         extended or retracted configuration;     -   a safety bumper about an upper outer perimeter of said interior         cavity;     -   a mesh head support positioned in said interior cavity;     -   wherein each of said front pair of retractable support legs and         rear pair of retractable support legs are pivotably and         rotatably attached to said main body having a first rotatable         configuration extending beyond a main body profile and a second         rotatable configuration within a profile of said main body.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

As generally understood, the present invention is baby holder system 10 that includes a main body 14 constructed and arranged with anterior cavity configured to hold baby 12 therein. System 10 includes a pair of front support legs 16 and rear support legs 18. Each of front support legs 16 and rear support legs 18 or extendable and retractable by a user. Further, each of front support legs 16 and back support legs 18 are secured into a selected extended or retracted position we are by the position is maintained by the leg support lock mechanism 20. Main body 14 has positions there in an appropriately positioned mesh head support 24 and flexible support base 22. About the perimeter of main body 14 is soft latex bumper 26.

As demonstrated in FIGS. 3A and 3B, in one embodiment, each of front support legs 16 and we are support legs 18 are configured with telescoping legs 37.

System 10, and one in Parliament, is further constructed with hand or belt aperture 30.

As demonstrated in FIGS. 7 and 8 , in one embodiment, each of front support legs 16 and rear support legs 18 are pivotably attached to main body 14 and as indicated by directional arrows in FIG. 7 , and pivotably rotatable to extend outward from main body 14 or to pivotably rotate within the perimeter of main body 14 as demonstrated in FIG. 8 .

As demonstrated in FIGS. 9-11 , system 10 includes, in one embodiment, a connector 32, as shown in FIG. 1 , that interacts with a positioning/locking plate for support legs 16 and 18 and locking spring 36.

In one embodiment, safety buckle 39, as demonstrated in FIG. 1 is incorporated with system 10.

While the invention has been described in its preferred form or embodiment with some degree of particularity, it is understood that this description has been given only by way of example and that numerous changes in the details of construction, fabrication, and use, including the combination and arrangement of parts, may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.
